National Labor Relations Board examiner Irving Rogosin ruled the International Longshoremen and Warehousemen's Union hiring halls at Long Beach Los Angeles Harbor and other Pacific ports violate the Taft Hartley Act by discriminating against nonunion workers.

The ruling follows action by the Waterfront Employers Association, now Pacific Maritime Association, after the 1948 longshoremen’s strike.
